Back in March of 2009 I was one of three people to comment on Vicki’s blog to enter and win her ‘Pay It Forward’ contest. A little while ago I received an amazing post card in the mail from Vicki that was painted with wax. I have only seen one other piece of art done with wax so it was a real treasure to have received another one that I can keep.

Back when I entered Vicki’s giveaway I also entered Brenda’s giveaway and was lucky enough to win in both. I have not yet posted about either of my wins nor my contests, so now is the time.

The first three people who leave a comment to this post will receive a 12″ x 12″ x 1.5″ painting from me. Please don’t leave your address on the comment, just an email address where I can email you privately to get all of the particulars.

This is a contest of course, and you will need to pay it forward to someone else. Here are the details you need to know before you leave a comment. And yes, I will have another contest after the new year to honor my winning Brenda’s contest too. But for now this one is to honor Vicki’s lovely post card.

Pay It Forward Giveaway

According to the rules, you have 365 days to send out your homemade gifts. Rest assured, that if you win, I will not wait 365 days to send you your gift.

1. Be one of the first THREE bloggers to leave a comment on this post, which then entitles you to a handmade item from me.

2. If you are one of the first three to make a comment, you are a winner! And you then agree to post this challenge on your own blog, meaning that you will pay it forward, creating a handmade gift -anything!- for the first THREE bloggers who leave a comment on YOUR post about this giveaway!

3. The gift that you send to your 3 friends can be from any price range and you have 365 days to make/ship your item. This means you should be willing to maintain your blog at least until you receive your gift and have shipped your gifts. And, remember it’s the spirit and the thought that count!

4. When you receive your gift, blog about it! If you are not one of the first three to comment on this post, you can still play along. Go ahead and start your own Pay It Forward chain, and encourage your blogging friends to do the same! It’s all about paying it forward.

Ok, so now that you know the rules… what say you? Who wants to win a free painting and at the same time make three somethings for others?

I can’t wait to see who wins!
